Augrented Insights Report for 1408 Sterling Place

1408 Sterling Place is a 4-story, 21-unit residential building constructed in 1915 in Crown Heights, currently owned by Fidel Herrera. The property has experienced a significant number of maintenance issues in recent months, particularly in 2025, with three separate incidents of water leaks, electrical problems, and flooring concerns occurring simultaneously in May 2025, all of which resulted in housing violations. Additional maintenance complaints were reported in spring 2025, including plumbing issues involving basins/sinks in April, door frame problems, and various conditions related to flooring, walls, and mold.

The building also faced an essential service interruption in February 2025 regarding heat and hot water for the entire building. The property has a documented history of pest control challenges, with multiple violations for pest infestations, including a specific case of mice infestation in Apartment 18 (4th floor) in October 2024, and previous roach infestations affecting Apartments 17 and 20. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues as evidenced by multiple Housing Maintenance Code Violations, including plumbing problems, inadequate water supply, and defective fixtures across various apartments.

Notably, the building's documentation shows occasional rodent inspections between 2014-2021, with some failing inspections for rat activity, though a compliance inspection in 2021 passed successfully. Recent building history suggests ongoing challenges with maintenance and timely responses to housing code violations, as evidenced by multiple complaints in 2025 that resulted in violations. While the building has shown some improvements through the certification of various closed violations in late 2024, including repairs to address bathroom grout issues, water supply problems, and various maintenance concerns, the frequency and variety of issues reported in 2025 indicate continuing maintenance challenges. The building's historical records indicate that while there was some pest activity reported between 2018-2024, recent bedbug reports from 2022-2024 show zero infestation cases, suggesting some improvement in pest management.
